    Volume of distribution was defined as the theoretical volume in which the total amount of drug would need to be uniformly distributed to produce the desired plasma concentration of a drug. Apparent volume of distribution during the terminal phase, calculated as Vz = Dose/AUC0-inf multiplied by λz. As AUCextra was >20% of AUC0-inf, Vz/F derived from λz was regarded as implausible \& not calculated for arms MSC1936369B 1mg, 2mg, 3.5 mg.

  36. Apparent Volume of Distribution During the Terminal Phase Following Extravascular Administration (Vz/F) of MSC1936369B: Regimen 2 (With Food Effect)

    Volume of distribution was defined as the theoretical volume in which the total amount of drug would need to be uniformly distributed to produce the desired plasma concentration of a drug.

  45. Number of Subjects With Clinical Benefit (Complete Response [CR], Partial Response [PR] or Stable Disease [SD}) and Progressive Disease (PD) Based on the Best Overall Response (BOR)

    Number of subjects with clinical benefit (CR, PR, or SD) and PD according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST Version 1.0) was reported. CR: defined as disappearance of all target and all non-target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to <10 mm. PR: defined as at least a 30% decrease in sum of longest diameter of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of longest diameter. PD:defined as at least a 20% increase in sum of longest diameter of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study) or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions. SD: defined as neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as reference the smallest sum of longest diameter while on study.

    Measured: Baseline until disease progression (assessed up to end of treatment [253 weeks])

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing MSC1936369B in people with Solid Tumors and Cancer, run by Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany at 9 sites in 4 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Oct 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 sites in France, Belgium, Australia, Netherlands. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 23 Oct 2018). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Subjects Experienced Any Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLT) Over the First Cycle - Day 1 to 21 (time frame: Day 1 up to Day 21 of Cycle 1). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00982865, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 Oct 2018.
